Melbourne Spring Odds: A Strong International Feel For 2014
August 19th, 2014 by Pom de TurfIt looks like this year’s Spring Season will feature a Melbourne Cup with a strong international connection – there will be overseas raiders aplenty coming to our shores in hopes of bagging the Cup. And a look through the Racing odds as the Melbourne Spring creeps closer shows you that there are a few international horses who might have a say in the big race…
And it’s not just international horses who will be involved in the Melbourne Spring – there will be trainers making the journey to these shores hoping to find results, too. One of those will likely be Aiden O’Brien, who will be aiming talented 3-year-old colt Adelaide at the Cox Plate. Adelaide has landed a place in each of his past five runs, including a good result at Royal Ascot, and he is a classy addition to the Cox Plate field – one who will be looking to win it.
Obviously the local contingent will be very strong in this year’s Melbourne Cup – it includes the current favourite The Offer for a start – but there are going to be overseas horses that feature in pretty much every race in the Spring Season. In the Cox Plate, look out for Dan Excel, who brings some great form with him from Hong Kong, and also Adelaide, who’s going to feature in those Racing odds, too!
